So disappointed to hear you won’t be joining us this year, Viv, :tear: and despite what you say, you’re such an integral part of us, I can’t remember a Rocks Pub Crawl without you... :tchin:
Your dry wit and wry humour will be sadly missed... Merry :santa: Christmas, my friend...

Seeing as how the real philosophical, deep, meaningful and topical subjects are discussed at the Frisco on Friday.......I'd like to suggest that we spend a bit of time discussing whether Hans Frank should have been indicted for the crime of "Genocide" rather than "Crimes against humanity" at the Nuremburg War Crimes Tribunal. Granted, he was found guilty and was hung, but I think it's important to discuss whether Lemkin was ignored by the Americans in favour of Lauterpacht. ....... and perhaps ponder over the unintended implications of this decision. :yea:

Hmmmm .... it seems as if we may need to include some discussion on the importance of "scatter cushions", "throw blankets" and even just plain old household "clutter" on Friday as well!!! :omg: Good onya Mick H!!!!! :yess:

:pull hair: Good grief! What next, Peter? :snap: Will you be running a knitting club at the Frisco? So, this is what happens when you spend too much time in oxygen deficient high altitudes.

C'mon Phred ........ you've seen 'em and met 'em .......... could those big fat fingers manipulate delicate knitting needles and yarn? The only yarn they can deal with is big fat old sea yarns!!! :omg: :laughing8:
Except perhaps for the Greenies ....... they are a bit feminine, and I seem to remember a few of them crocheting at sea!!!!
